Not much to report

Nothing to exciting going on here.  I found two boxes stuffed back in a closet shelf that I hadn’t opened since I moved here several years ago.  I’ve been cleaning those out – photos – frames (some the worse for wear so hit the trash) and other odd junk to toss out since clearly I don’t need it.  Tonight tho I think I’ll give myself a break from the cleaning out and sit and knit the night away.  I’m anxious to get the sweater long enough so I can get started on the sleeves and get it finished.  I want to have it done before I see my parents next month since I want to see if Mom wants one and have her try it on to figure out how much smaller I need to make it for her.

I did do a bit of pattern shopping on line and bought another simple sweater – very plain with short sleeves that would be good under a jacket, along with two shawl patterns.

and this one http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/weekend-shawl which is gorgeous and may be my next project.  Love the edging.

So off to knit for a while.
